A Curious Calculation.

A rapid penman can write thirty words in a
minute. To do this he must draw his pen through
the space of rod-sixteen feet and half. in
forty minutes his pen travels furlong, and in five
hours and third mile. We make, on an aver
age sixteen curves or turns of the pen in writing
each word. Writing thirty words in minute, we
must make 43 to each second; in an hour Is, 200 ;
in day of only five hours, 144,OO0 and in a
year of 800 days 43,2OO,OOO. The man who made
100000 strokes with pen in a month was not at
all remarkable Men make 100000. Here we
have in the aggregate mark 800 miles long to
be traced on paper by each writer in year. In
making each letter of the ordinary alphabet, we
must make from three to seven strokes of the pen
ON an average, three and half to four.

Analysed the Ashes.
Fircman's Herald

Two barns, said to be filled with unthreshed
wheat, were recently burned in Germany. They
were insured but it was impossible to collect, be-
barns were simply straw. When the affair got into
the courts, chemical experts were called to anayze
the ashes. Wheat contains large quantity of
phosphoric acid, almost ten times as much as does
straw. Naturally, in the burning of these barns,
wood ashes, cement, and other mineral substances
were mixed with the ashes submitted to the chem
lists, but none of these admixtures contain phos-
phoric acid. The experts found that of two sam
Piles placed in their hands one contained 1912 per
cent. and the other 10 per cent of the acid, thus
proving conclusively that the farmers were in the
right, and the insurance companies, as is general
ly the case according to public sentiment, in the
wrong.

The Moon and the Crops.-An exchange
says: can intelligent gentleman who has great
faith in the signs of the moon and their effect upon
the growing crops, states that he has observed
that if the moon is full from the 25th of June to
the 10th of July, good crop of grain can be look
ed for generally. There may be local failures
from local causes, but the yield generally will be
large. The sooner after the 25th of June there is
q full moon, the larger will be the grain crop the
following year. Should full moon come in later
in July, then lookout for poor crop. This sign,
it is asserted, has not failed in twenty years. 1t
is an easy matter to make note of this, and it
may be of great interest to farmers and others to
follow the observation. This year full moon set
in early and according to the theory, good crops
should be the result"

Barn Burned.-Between and 9 o'clock on
Tuesday night last the barn on the farm of Mr.
Abraham Cole, near Butler, 9Th district, was
burned to the ground. Mr.. Joshua Shelley, the
tenant on the place, lost all his crops and imple
ments stored in the barn, besides one calf two or
three wagons, &C., none of which were insured
The timely discovery of the fire enabled him to
save his horses and cattle. The barn was insured
in the Hartford Mutual Company for 81 200. The
fire is believed to have been the work of incen-
diary, and suspicion rests upon man who had
been about the neighborhood for some time. Mr..
Shelley is an industrious man and the loss falls
upon him very heavily.

OF Interest to Militiamen.-The Chester
town (Kent county, Ne,os says: "The first case
under the new State militia law relative to disci-
pline was heard before Justice Wheatley last Sat-
urday and it is one of much interest especially to
members of volunteer military organizations.
private of the Kent Guards was court-martialed
and fined, and upon refusal to pay the fine the
law was invoked. The evidence went to show
that the fines were properly imposed, but the de-
tense raised the question as to whether the said
member had been legally sworn in. Lieutenant
Duyer and other members testified that all the
members, including the private in question, had
signed the oath, and this is oil that is required in
mastering men into the military service. The
justice deferred his decision to fully investi
gate the subject. If the company is sustained in
imposing the fine, it will settle the question of dis
cipiine. The members are all mustered in for
three years and they are under the regulations of
the service which gives power to enforce obedi-
ence to orders by court martialing and imposition
of fines"

MONEY TO BE MADE.-It is said that dull times
are not known by the agents for the great publish
ing house of George Stinson Co., of Portland,
Maine. The reason of this exceptional success is
found in the fact that they always give the public
that which is keenly appreciated and at prices
that all can afford. At present we understand,
their agents doing wonderfully we'll on several
new lines. They need many more agents in all
parts of the country. Those who need profitable
work should apply at once. Women do as well
as men. Experience is not necessary, for Messrs.
Stinson & Co. undertake to show all who are will
ling to work, not hard but earnestly, the path to
large success. 1t should be remembered that an
agent can do handsome business without being
away from home over night. Another advantage
it costs nothing to give the business trial, and
an agent can devote all his time, or only his spare
moments to it. Stinson & Co. guarantee grand
success to all who engage and follow simple and
plain directions that they give. We have not
space to explain all here, but full particulars will
be sent free to those who address the firm their
full address is given above.

ITEMS OF INTEREST.

Bees.-Thero arc three classes of worker bees
in thrifty colony--the nurse bees, the wa4-work-
ers, and the honey gatherers. The first duty the
young bees perform is feeding the young brood.
The second labor is procuring the wax and build
ing comb. Third and last is gathering honey
If colony of bees becomes queenless and you do
not wish to unite it with another, give them a
frame of brood from another colony containing
brood in its first stages, and they will convert
portion of said brood into queens, which would
have otherwise all Matched into worker bees.
A Sure Cure.-Robert Black, one Of the oldest
citizens of Franklin county, Pa, residing at
Blacks Gap, writes to The Valley Spirit and re-
quests the publication of very simple remedy he
has long used and found efectual in what is COM
monty called cramp collie. His remedy is from
half to full tablespoonful of castor oil, taken in
o cup of coffee as hot as it can be swallowed, and
he promises relief in ten minutes. The remedy is
so simple, so easily within the reach of all and
harmless, that Mr.. Black is entirely right in say
ing that it should be generally known.
The Boz Stall for Horses.-If the breeders of
fine trotting and running horses find box stalls in
dispensable, why are these not valuable for farm
ers? asks The National Stockman. It would cost
but little to build them; and there are few barns
or stables in the country which have not room
enough for them if space was properly utilized
Farmers, think OF this. The first time you have
few minutes to spare investigate the matter, and
if you cannot arrange your stables SO that you
can have a nice roomy box stall for each horse
and have everything more convenient than before.
If you can do this you will be able to do away
with halters entirely, you will need have fears
of your horses hurting each other and your horses
will be able to do more work, ON account of the
better rest they obtain by being free to turn round
and lie down as they choose. Try it.
Thrush.-The Breeders Gazette says: "The
most effectua remedy for thrush in horses consists
mainly in proper attention to cleanliness of the
parts, as the affection may, to some extent, be
consequence of slight constitutional disturbance.
1t will be proper to change the diet and give the
horse some internal treatment. For this purpose
take of powdered saltpetre one ounce; powdered
sulphate of iron and powdered common resin, of
each half an ounce; powdered or ground juniper
berries, two ounces; mix and divide into four
parts, of which give one part, mixed among food,
morning and evening. The feet should be proper
ly cleansed twice daily, and portion of the fol-
lowing mixture applied between the crevices Of
the frog, after the loose decayed portions have
been removed: Eight ounces of Barbados tar,
ounce of melted lard, half ounce of sulphurio
acid; mix carefully. The floor under and behind
the horse should be kept clean and dry"

A 5000, 900 Judgment Against a Bishop

A 5000, 900 Judgment Against Bishop.
Rev. Father Jean, of Lyons, Iowa, has recov-
cred judgment against Bishop Hennessy, as
damages for having dismissed him from the priest
hood about fifteen years ago. 1t is understood
that the cause of the Bishops action in depo-
sing Father Jean from his priesthood was
the misappropriation of the funds of the church
and disobeying the mandate of his govern
ing Bishop. The Reverend Father began suit
upon two or three different charges, and they
hung in the courts for several years, some of them
being dismissed upon demurrers filed by counsel
for the Bishop. The judgment was taken by de-
fault and on effort to have it opened is being
made.

A Travelling Hennery.-A resident of the
Sth district, who is subordinate official in the
Court House and whose duties call him to Towson-
town every Tuesday and Wednesday, drives here
and bitches his horse in public shed, bringing
the feed along for the animals midday meal. On
Tuesday, when the colored hostler went to take
the bag of feed from the buggy box, he was not
little surprised to find ben comfortably seated
on a nest, and upon removing her, four nice clean
eggs were disclosed. The hen had evidently been
riding up and down from her home, attending
strictly to business while being joted over the
rough turnpike distance of miles, and no doubt
without the knowledge of her owner. The story
was circulated that the old gentleman brought the
hen along to pick up the grains which the horse
let fall while feeding, but Of course there is no
truth in this.
